Research disclosure — this profile was compiled from public online sources on 2026-10-22. This company overview is not a tasting review. Original tasting reviews are labeled separately when they exist. Ownership, roasting and sourcing details are attributed to documented sources. While the brand is based in Bloomington, Indiana, there is historical confusion in public records regarding a similarly named 'Hopscotch Coffee & Records' in Winchester, Virginia, which operates as a separate entity and sources its coffee from a different partner.
